In addition to the hardware supplied with your transducer, you will need various hand tools.
Installation
The trolling motor transducer is designed to mount on the trolling motor of your boat. All hardware needed for
installation and operation of this Humminbird® accessory is either included with this accessory or came with your
original transducer. The trolling motor mounted transducer allows you to gather sonar information from the point on
the boat closest to where you are fishing. It is important that you properly orient the transducer housing in the
direction of travel of the trolling motor, to ensure an accurate depiction of the terrain under your boat.
The trolling motor mounted transducer will fit any standard trolling motor housing. Some users install this transducer
in conjunction with a switch so that the standard transducer can be used for high-speed operation, and the trolling
motor transducer can be used while trolling.
1.
Attaching the Transducer
WARNING!
Before attaching the transducer to the trolling motor, confirm that the motor is disconnected from all sources of
electrical power.
CAUTION!
Before attaching the transducer to the trolling motor, make sure the trolling motor is properly secured to the boat
and will not shift during transducer installation.
1. Position the transducer on the underside of the motor housing. Refer to the illustration that most resembles your
accessory, noting any requirements for directional bias.
NOTE:
Round, circular-bottomed transducers have no directional bias, and therefore orientation of these types of
transducers is not as important. Rounded rectangular transducers, however, do have a directional bias, and must be
installed as shown in the illustration.
Side View of the Transducer
Transducer should be mounted forward of the motor shaft. Styles of transducer may differ from illustration.
NOTE:
Your transducer may not look exactly like the transducer shown in the illustrations, but it will mount in exactly the
same way.
